Media Appointments at ACFW Conference

I’m the publicity officer for ACFW and honored to tell you about the media appointments, something new and different, available at our conference in Indianapolis Sep. 17-20th, 2010. In fact, I don’t know any other conferences that offer media training appointments.

Adding two new types of appointments for our authors is one of the reasons American Christian Fiction Writers conference is top in the industry.

The media appointments help educate Christian fiction authors in presenting themselves and their work in public, on radio, and on television. These are difficult things to do for many introverted people.

Rusty Shelton will be taking 30 appointments focused on delivering a sparkling message specific to the individual author while I will be taking 8 appointments focused on how to prepare, practice, and perform in the media.

Both styles of media appointments are intended to help authors not only feel more comfortable in the public eye, but to also help them create a stellar public appearance. With Rusty’s ability to hone for the individual and my specialty in confidence and presentation, we hope that ACFW authors will be better prepared to share their work with the world.

In addition to the two styles of media appointments, we’ve also added mentoring appointments. Yes, agent and editor appointments are available too. ACFW is always looking for ways to enrich the conference experience for attendees. We hope that these new opportunities will enhance both the professional lives of our members and uplift the Christian fiction industry as ACFW authors step out into the media.
